Polyimide Coated SM Fiber
Fibercore’s range of Polyimide coated, bend-insensitive Single-Mode (SM) fibers are specifically designed for use in harsh environments. The fibers target micro-seismic “fracking” sensors, distributed temperature and pressure sensors used in Oil & Gas exploration and process optimization. These fibers are also an excellent choice for embedded Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) strain and temperature sensor applications.
Polyimide is a high performance polymer, which can withstand short-term temperatures as high as 400°C and continuous temperatures of 300°C, allowing the fiber to survive in high temperature wells and thermally cured embedding processes.
The fibers are available in a range of Numerical Apertures (NAs) from 0.13NA up to 0.31NA. Low NA fibers are designed for low attenuation applications where long lengths of fiber are used in a straight deployment state, for example in Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) systems. High NA fibers allow dramatically reduced bend losses for coiled deployment states, for example in coiled seismic/acoustic sensors.
